    Mizu is conveniently located at the top of the of the Hyatt Hotel. Upon arrival, I was escorted to a table outdoors and I immediately noticed the beautiful view. To get things started, I settled on the Elderflower French 75, it was equal parts sweet and boozy. For my meal, I had the crab fried rice and a yellowtail hand roll. The rice was okay, but it was dry and lacked flavor in my opinion. I think I would've been satisfied if there were more scallions and spices in it. The handroll was a stand out for me, and I truly enjoyed that the recipe was very different and the texture was very different! Service overall was good and I found the staff to be very friendly.

    Experience was amazing - went for a work dinner and had a great time. Waiter was spectacular and really kind. Gave us a ton of recommendations. I liked some items more than others - the hand rolls were really small and harder to share. But I loved the Carolina roll with the waygu inside it was really delicious and different. I would also recommend the brussel sprouts and the crème brûlée!

    Two delicious drinks. The small drink is tequila and cranberry

    I will definitely order it again, although the dumplings were delicious. The braised lamb made the whole dish. The ambiance is classy, and the staff was nice. Service was great.

    This was my first time visiting Mizu and it was beautiful!! The view you get of the sunset outside makes it worth going there alone, but the food is also SO good! The firecracker shrimp specifically was amazing. This is probably one of the nicer hotel restaurants I have been to, it feels like it could be a stand alone restaurant. I will for sure be back!

    Captivating rooftop views. Amazing wine & cocktail selection. Attentive service. All of this & a stellar array of inventive dishes designed to appeal to a variety of palates. I went with a group & did the chef's tasting, which did not disappoint. Japanese milk bread, sushi, nigiri, Brussels, tuna tartare--the list goes on & each dish seemingly topped the one prior. A very memorable dining experience--I'll definitely be back!

    Located at the top of the hyatt in the apex area. I didnt get any food on my visit, but I had some late night drinks on the rooftop around 10pm, as they closed at 11pm The service was friendly and efficient. The restaurant is stunning. They have some non alcoholic drinks on the menu, a nice whiskey list and plenty of wines. There was a cockroach out on the patio that was a bit concerning, but I do understand we were outside--- just beware.

    It's been a lil minute since I've been back to Mizu, but it's still one of my fav Charlotte spots. My fiance and I came on a special date night! It was truly a perfect night, we had a reservation for 7pm or so and the sun was setting so we were seated outside on their beautiful patio area!!! My my my, this was just so scenic and beautiful. The weather was perfect and so was my company. We're big foodies so we opted for their Osusume, which is a curated family style tour of the entire dinner menu. It's $70 per person and $5 from each meal is donated to the Boys & Girls club. Amazing. We had a time!!! There was soooooooo much food! I can't even sit here and tell you everything we had, but I HIGHLY recommend trying this. You will get so much food and get to try so much from their menu. It was exceptional!!! We really enjoyed everything and loved the variety of food. Mizu continues to impress me, even after all these years.

    Had a lovely experience at Mizu inside of Hyatt Centric. I ordered the lobster fried rice and Yaki-Tori. The lobster fried rice was super yummy but I wish there would have been a tad more lobster in it for the price. They Yaki-Tori was chicken thighs on two skewers which was really flavorful. Spacious place with plenty of seating and great for a solo dinner or with company. Service was great and I was never left waiting long.

    Nigiri

    Went for queens feast and it did not disappoint. Everything was so fresh and flavorful and as someone who is GF I so appreciated all the options. The flakey skin on the salmon was perfect and the ube banana pudding dessert was so good! The starters were great I just wish they were more filling than 1 bite. Service was great as well. Excited to come back to try more (please continue offering GF desserts )

    Food was excellent. Service was good. Ambiance was also good. I met a friend after work for appetizers and drinks. We both enjoyed our food and made plans to return to Mizu for dinner.

    We have experience this restaurant four times, and all four times I would give it a 5!. Not an extensive sushi menu, but you know some sushi places have entirely too many selections. We have taken people with us every time. And each time, they say they will be back. Located on top of a hotel, it has a wonderful sunset view. Easy and free parking. It really reminds me I need to stop with my hesitation about restaurants in hotels. I didn't take a picture, but difinetely get the sea bass skewers!

    Brussels Sprouts

    TLDR: Great date night spot with amazing service. My boyfriend and I came on a Friday evening without a reservation and we were able to grab a high-top table in front of the kitchen with no wait. We ordered a bit of everything, and every dish was delicious, but the highlights for us were the desserts, Brussels sprouts, and grilled fish. I honestly think you can't go wrong with anything on their menu, but what really set Mizu apart was the staff's hospitality. The chefs at the counter checked in on us throughout the night and even surprised us with complimentary nigiri. Later, when we couldn't decide between two desserts, the staff brought out both and only charged us for one (a foodie's dream). To top it off, they gifted us a grilled fish entrée (!!) which ended up being the best dish of the night. We were already really full when the fish came, but we managed to finish every bite because it was SO good. Overall, we give Mizu a solid 5/5. The food alone would be reason enough to return, but the kindness and generosity of the staff truly made our date night a memorable dining experience.

    My first time here and it is such a pretty restaurant overlooking South Park on the 9th Floor. Parking is validated for the restaurant if you park at the hotel. There is also a valet. If you park at the garage near Calle Sol, parking is free the first 3 hours. The restaurant has comfy booths and features a pretty outdoor patio. We came here for my birthday. Our waitress made it extra special by gifting us all a glass of champagne and some items. We ordered the crab fried rice appetizer. It didn't have alot of flavor, but was fine. You could see the small pieces of crab. Next we had the brussel sprouts and pork belly bao buns. The brussel sprouts could have been cooked a bit longer as they were still fairly chewy, but they had good flavor I especially liked the pickled ginger on them. I liked the softness of their buns and the carrot and cilantro were nice with the pork. I got the Lemon Drop sushi roll as my entree. I loved it ! Nice portion size, tasted fresh, and had great flavor. There was a lemon aoli on top that set it off. A friend got the orange duck and enjoyed it. We were served grilled pineapple which was quite good. For dessert, we had the peach & caramel cheesecake. It had good flavor and was very light. Thank you to our waitress and Mizu for making my day special !

    Nice rooftop view in South Park. The cocktails were refreshing and light. Good for after work drinks on a weekday. Will return.

    Fantastic food. The Zara Soba was as I remembered it in Japan. The Katsu Jyu was very good as well…read more It came with miso, salad, seaweed salad, and pickled cucumbers. Not a fan of the dressing on the salad. Service was prompt and friendly. They have seating at the bar, booths, tables, and a Japanese style table where you sit on cushions on the raised floor. Definitely want to try the other dishes.

We both had the Chicken Bento Boxes again...and we loved it. I've had Bento Boxes in dozens of Japanese restaurants, but this place offers such a perfect combination of items (everything we love!)...Tempura, Kaarage Chicken, Shumai, Seaweed Salad, Sushi Rolls, etc.etc. Plus, this bento box includes the salad and soup! Frankly, I wanna try other items on the menu, but I'm so addicted to this Bento Box, I just can't seem to tear away from it. My husband feels the same! Also tried their hot Sake...but think I prefer the cold version. BTW, I noticed some renovations. They now have darker Cherry Wood (?) flooring and cabinetry (behind the sushi station, that is). However, they still have some original light wood chairs and tables. Also, they separated some of the tables (Yay!)...so not as many "communal" tables like before. Anyway, think this is a good sign that this place plans to stay awhile longer!

    Cowfish Sushi Burger Bar is definitely one of those places I completely overlooked. I think I…read moreassumed it would be too expensive or wouldn't have enough options, and I completely discounted myself because the food was AMAZING! I did the bento box with sushi and a slider. I do wish the slider was a little larger, but it was still a really great burger. The sushi was large and delicious, and I really enjoyed the pickled salad or cucumbers. I can't remember exactly what it was now lol, but it was GOOD! And those Brussels sprouts are NOT to be played with! The appetizer portion is perfect, especially if you're hungry, and the flavor was amazing. Those Brussels sprouts alone are certainly a reason I will return. Overall, 10 out of 10 experience. Our server was great, service was fast, the bathrooms were clean, and I truly appreciated everything about this place. I would absolutely return and tell people about it, especially for the price and quality of the food.

    It's been years since I've dined at Cowfish, but decided to check them out for dinner…read more Made a reservation and was seated immediately. There was a decent crowd about 4:45 on a Saturday but nothing too extreme. The restaurant did get busy though; however, there was no impact on our service or quality of food. The sushi and burgers were really good and filling. I'll be back!
